Audit key-management policies and envelope-encryption design for a decrypt path broader than intended: a key policy or grant that admits a principal who should never decrypt, a wildcard key resource in an identity policy that covers unrelated keys, an encryption context that is not enforced so a data key decrypts outside its intended scope, and a cross-account key grant that widens the decrypt set. Covers cloud key-management services, key policies and grants, and envelope encryption where a…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Auditing KMS key policy and envelope encryption: who can actually decrypt

Envelope encryption protects data with a data key and protects the data key with a managed master key, so
the real access boundary is the master key's policy plus whatever encryption context constrains the data
key. That indirection hides over-broad access. A key policy or grant can admit a principal who should never
decrypt this data; a wildcard key resource in an identity policy can cover keys the author never considered;
and an encryption context, meant to bind a data key to a specific scope, does nothing if the decrypt path
does not enforce it. Cross-account grants widen the set further. The payload can be perfectly encrypted while
the decrypt set quietly includes the wrong principals. You audit these by computing who can decrypt and
comparing that to who should read the data.

## When to use

- Data is protected by a managed key through envelope encryption, with a data key under a master key.
- Decrypt access is governed by a key policy, key grants, and identity policies that may use wildcards.
- An encryption context is used to scope a data key, and you need to confirm it is enforced on decrypt.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add unboundcompute/security-agent-skills/auditing-kms-key-policy-and-envelope-encryption@sha256:7a4347b7f8473ac4

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260827.b5f41a4, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
